LINDA LEE BUTLER

A 2nd generation painter, Linda began her career studying graphic design in the 1970’s. In an age without computers, her work is reflective of that time frame. Linda creates her own foundations - dependent on form, color and structure. She completed her undergraduate studies in graphic design, and additional training at RISD and is now focusing on her painting.

While her current niche is abstract expressionism, her inspirational influences are not necessarily painters. Joseph Albers, a 1970’s color theorist, created a series of pieces that were homage to the square - this helped her understand the language of color. Having always admired Rothko, Linda saw her first work of his in 1983 and has carried the inspiration with her ever since.

Linda infuses her own authentic style to create a collaboration of new age art with a classic twist.

KENNY ALVES

For over a decade, Kenny has been cultivating his interest for art. The majority of his inspiration is unconventional, technological, and modern. Paired with his love of skateboarding and emerging technologies, he creates visual art from up cycled materials - reworking old skateboards and electronic equipment to create artistic treasure. Overtime he has transitioned and his expertise is recognized as large format paintings.

Kenny was raised in Rhode Island and attended school on in San Fransisco where skate culture is very much alive.

RYAN NICHOLAS ALVES

Ryan Nicholas Alves splits his time between Newport, RI and Newport Beach, CA - a born and bread New England based surfer with west coast style.

Over time, Ryan's art has transitioned from fine tip markers on surf boards to acrylic paint on canvas. Even though his mediums have shifted, his relaxed style, graffiti-esque work, and inspiration has remained the same.

Ryan is inspired by the ocean, the meditative process of surfing is what allows him to clear his mind in order to create. Pulling from Keith Haring’s Pop art and Damien Hirst's artwork, Ryan has established his own artistic voice while keeping that of his predecessors alive. All of his work is free hand and driven by the flow of natural energy.
